I asked this a few weeks ago and nobody had an answer, and I can't find anything anywhere that provides one, but do any of y'all have any idea what is going on with Marco Luciano? Last I heard he was rehabbing a back strain in Arizona, but that was three weeks ago, and he hasn't played for Eugene since June.
At the time, he was talked about as close to getting promoted to Richmond, but that seems unlikely now. I really wanted to see him in AA this year to give us some hope that the Giants in fact CAN develop a 21 or younger talent at the MLB level, and have him playing for the Giants in 2023. This back injury mystery is testing my optimism that Luciano can be counted on. It's probably just a blip, but until that is confirmed, my optimism is on hold, and I want to feel optimistic about at least Luciano and Harrison in this lost season!
